内容摘要:

This paper studies spurious regressions involving processes moderately deviated from a unit root, and establishes the limiting distributions for the least squares estimator, the associated $t$-statistic, the coefficient of determination $R^2$ and the Durbin-Watson statistic. We find that these limiting distributions depend on nuisance parameters, which makes spurious effects detection impossible using the conventional $t$-statistic in practice. As a cure, we propose a robust $t$-test based on the balanced regression model, where the lagged regressor and the lagged dependent variable are augmented to the original regression. The induced $t$-statistic via such an augmentation is shown to be asymptotically standard normal and free of nuisance parameters. Furthermore, the limiting properties of other statistics are show to be similar to those in the classical regression theory. Such spurious detective method is very easy to implement in practice. Finally, the finite sample properties of the robust detective method are demonstrated through Monte Carlo studies and empirical examples.
